I can log in to mysql and see that the wiki database contains the table "page" which has the fields stated in the select query below. LocalSettings.php has the line $wgDBprefix="wiki" and gives this error:

Table 'wiki.Wikipage' doesn't exist (localhost)

So if I change the line $wgDBprefix to "test" I get:
Table 'wiki.testpage' doesn't exist (localhost)

Shouldn't it be looking for the table "wiki.page"? So if I comment out the $wgDBprefix line or make it if I make the line $wgDBprefix="" I get:
Table 'wiki.page_restrictions' doesn't exist (localhost)
(page_restrictions is a field in the table "page")

Somewhat confused at this point, I'm sure I'm overlooking something minor...  
The table names are NOT all prefixed by a string.

Isn't there a prefix string in this file as well?? Can't remember, and haven't 
got the code to hand. Look at the names of the tables that are created, and it 
they're all prefixed by a string, then update accordingly.
